Europe

[Beskar]

Was food in Europe as dangerous as that from stands in North Africa before the EU set up a bunch of regulations?

Were the individual countries unable to make any rules themselves? Why did the EU have to set up another layer of regulation?

CR

We shall now return to 27 different sets of product categorization and regulation, instead of a single one, drastically complicating trade and benefitting only lawyers and pencil pushers at a national level and at firms engaging in transnational trade (i.e. all involved in the food business). Two hundred 'evil bureaucrats' in Bruxelles will be replaced by 5400 national bureacrats, plus 50000 bureaucrats at food processing companies trying to make sense of different regulation.

Because having one-standardisation is obviously a bad thing right which actually removed regulation to a large degree and not adding just another layer?

I am not seeing how this whole food standard thing is actually bad, it is just retarded nationalism.

Oh yeah, that reminds me, did you know that the EU is making standardisation on phone-chargers to use the same ending? (mini-USB port, similar to those on digital cameras) Damn those evil European Bureaucrats, it is my consitutional right to have 23 different phone charger endings!
